The diagram shows a smooth inclined plane making an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal and having a length of \(5.0\ \text{m}\). A block of mass \(2.0\ \text{kg}\) starts from rest at the top and slides down without friction. At the bottom it compresses a horizontal spring of spring constant \(k = 800\ \text{N\,m}^{-1}\) until the block momentarily comes to rest. Assuming mechanical energy is conserved, calculate the maximum compression of the spring.
